I said NO WAY and it happened again! ODU was a 28 point underdog, but VTech’s QB went down, and their offense was already dysfunctional. Their defense also forgot to show up and a historic upset occurred. Once again a ranked team with a mediocre or poor offense went down.

This week’s best values are Texas A&M at home (500), South Carolina (425) at home, Pitt (347) at home, Arizona State at home (399), and Stanford at home (153).
